Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9202866A1] A computer neural network process control system and method provides predicted values to a controller used to control a process for producing a product. The predicted value is produced by a neural network provided with stored input data from a historical database. The neural network is configured by a developer using a neural network configuration stage and step. The neural network is trained using training data stored in the historical database, which is compared with the predicted value produced by the neural network using input data obtained at a time associated with the time of the training data. An error signal is produced by the comparison of the predicted value with the training data, the error signal is used to train the neural network, and is also used to determine (1) whether the predicted values of the neural network should continue to be used by the controller, and (2) to retrain the network. Predicted values are thus produced by the neural network which have a close correlation to the training values training data.
